Barack and Michelle Obama are poised, calm, decent, composed, positive, well-adjusted, and socially skilled. They are NORMAL AND REFRESHING.

Contrast them to how the Clintons LIVE THEIR LIVES DAILY: NO social graces, poor comportment, no sense of proportion or balance, no sense of anyone but selves, catty, shrill, pushy, always in a panic about power, berating, belittling, FAKE, money-grubbing, scary angry, scary vindictive, lying, cheating, backstabbing, paranoid, and out-of-touch. Always on some emotional roller coaster and HUGE DRAMA QUEENS.

The HillBilly family is ALL drama, ALL the time. A real-life, sorry soap opera.

And Hillary ALWAYS does that pyscho-pointing to (a fake) "someone" in the crowd, while contorting her face and eyes in that WILD PSYCHO-SURPRISE.

Scary stuff.

If she cross-dressed, how could one tell?

But the prospect of a deal behind closed doors, that could brush aside the views of voters in the primaries, is already creating fury in the party.

Donna Brazile, an African American strategist, said last week: "If 795 of my colleagues decide this election, I will quit the Democratic Party."

But the Clinton camp fears that a failure to engineer a deal could lead to bitter battles at the Democrat convention in Denver in late August, which could even end with Al Gore, the former vice president, emerging as a compromise candidate.

"There's a five per cent chance of that happening, but that's five percent too high," the Clinton source said.

It's going to be a Gore/Obama ticket. Gore holds the womens vote O holds the blacks and the dems are done with Billary once and for all.

Psychotic Break Alert! Wait until we get a load of what Hillary is willing to do to destroy Obama.

That exactly it! Exactly. It is scary and bizarre.

You hit the nail on the head; they smell blood in the water.

Yet another reason to question giving the gentle sex the right to vote. Flame on.

I've noticed the MSM press has shown her in this snappy model blouse on a number of occasions recently.

I believe she was in the process of accessorizing, but the curtain rod shoulder pads kept getting hung up on door frames.

The victim du jour.. Actually, they find a new way to portray her as a victim everyday.

Just a brief anecdote. I work w/a group of totally apolitical people...they don’t follow politics and would be surprised to find that their co-worker (me!!) was a long time poster at a political forum such as FR. Politics just aren’t discussed...until a few weeks ago when the ‘Hillary’ photos showed up on Drudge (the one where she looks like wrinkles were photoshopped and chins added). The ladies I work w// were outraged...they wouldn’t comment on (or alter) any man’s appearance like that...the Hillary supporter was amazing...none of these ladies would have even given the primaries a second thought (PA’s is in April) but all of a sudden they were thinking of (and feeling sorry for) Hillary.

As a strategy to hit middle aged woman...that move was brilliant (on the Clintons part). Poor picked on Hillary.

These blue dress democrats get a little taste of the bias that Republicans and conservatives face day after day, year after year and they scream about it. Yet they still contend that the mainstream has no liberal left prejudice.

It’s easy to show crazy pictures of Hillary because she is crazy.

It’s easy to call her “shrill” because she is shrill. The sound of her voice sends shivers up my spine.

It’s easy to portray her as cold - because she has said some pretty cold things, and has done some pretty cold things.

And I’m a woman.
I’m a woman who doesn’t like bitchy power-hungry women.

We’ve seen the term “McInsane” tossed around this forum by both men and women...becuase it has a ring of truth in it.

But even McCain’s voice doesn’t send shivers down my spine like Hillary’s.

“she has little or no control over her emotion of the moment,”

You’re exacty right, and you reminded of that brief “moment” during the debate when she lashed out at Edwards and Obama - talking down to them and flashing that condescending psychotic look of hers.

I thought to myself “that must have been the last thing Bill saw before his face got scratched up on inaugeration day”

There are very good reasons why Hillary is being treated this way by the press.

SO right. She gives women a bad name.
